SContinue Value in Sentence Break Unicode Property

Unicode Version 18.0

SContinue is used to mark characters that allow a sentence to continue without a hard break, typically when a closing quotation mark or bracket appears after terminal punctuation like a period, question mark, or exclamation point. This value ensures that punctuation which visually belongs to the preceding sentence, such as a right curly quote or a small right parenthesis, does not trigger a new sentence boundary on its own. Instead, SContinue signals that the sentence’s end is deferred until the closing character is processed, which helps maintain correct segmentation in texts with nested or trailing punctuation. It applies to a limited set of characters, mostly closing punctuation marks, and works in conjunction with other rules to decide whether a boundary actually occurs after the terminal mark.
